Stoplight Parrotfish: Sparisoma viride
Parrotfish feed on plants and Coral during the day; with the extra set of teeth in their mouths, they even ingest the coral skeleton as well as the polyps inside. At night, they find a place to hide; as they have a very strong scent, the parrotfish encloses itself inside a mucous 'cocoon' so it cannot be found - it may take it as much as half an hour in the morning to break out of its own creation. Stoplight parrotfishes change sex; when the breeding population is lacking females or males, the fish start to change sex to even out their numbers for breeding.
